It helped me! I had pneumonia with a very large empyema in my right lung in March 2011. It was undiagnosed and I got to hospital on the verge of death. I was put into a medically induced coma in a intesive care unit and remained there for 3 weeks. I knew nothing of this at the time, and when I awoke I was in a high dependency unit, where I stayed for another 8 weeks (with chest drains, which were uncomfortable), then had a decortication procedure under general anaesthesia, and nother 3 weeks in hospital. I survived (not writing this from beyond the grave...) and a year later am fit and healthy.

I recently had a small fire, I used my fire extinguisher, the fire man told me I would almost guaranteed get pneumonia, because I was coughing after using it (indicating I had probably inhaled some). Sure enough about 3 weeks later I got very sick and eventually had to go to the hospital, I had severe double lung pneumonia& had to get IV antibiotics
